For the past month we've been reading about the impending announcement of Menu Foods settlement details. They missed a couple of announced dates, and when we checked their website again, here is the latest news:

UPDATE ON SETTLEMENT HEARING SCHEDULE On April 1, 2008, the Hon. Noel Hillman, Judge of District Court, District of New Jersey, scheduled the filing of the anticipated settlement agreement and motion for preliminary approval for May 1, 2008, with a hearing for May 14, 2008. After a telephone hearing today, the Court granted the parties a brief extension of time to complete the drafting of documents and pleadings related to the settlement and to permit time for review and signature by the parties. The parties advised the Court that they remain confident that these documents will be completed. By Order issued today by the Court, the new dates are as follows: May 20, 2008 -- Filing of settlement agreement and the motion for preliminary approval; and May 30, 2008, 9:30 a.m. – Hearing on the motion for preliminary approval of settlement agreement.
